Product information
This platinum-cured silicone hose is built for applications that demand both high pressure resistance and vacuum capability while maintaining excellent structural stability. The polyester braid provides exceptional burst strength, and the SS 316L helical wire prevents kinking and collapse under suction — a rugged, long-lasting solution for dynamic and static installations.
Key features
- Dual reinforcement — polyester braid for burst resistance plus SS 316L wire for vacuum stability
- Platinum-cured silicone — ultra-pure, inert, odourless; compliant with FDA and USP Class VI
- High vacuum capability — up to 780 mm Hg (size dependent)
- Excellent temperature range — −60 °C to +200 °C
- Corrosion-resistant construction — 316L stainless steel wire withstands aggressive environments
- Kink and collapse resistant — maintains shape under bending and vacuum load

Datasheets, material declarations (FDA / USP Class VI), RoHS/REACH statements and dimensional drawings for this product are issued on request with your quotation.
Request documentationPlatinum-cured silicone is addition-cured — odourless, low in extractables and preferred for medical, pharmaceutical and high-purity food contact. Peroxide-cured silicone is a robust, cost-effective choice for industrial and non-critical transfer. We supply both and will advise the right grade for your process.
Yes. Most items are produced to your drawing — bore/OD, wall, length, cross-section, durometer and colour. Send dimensions with your quote request.
Depending on the grade selected: FDA 21 CFR 177.2600, USP Class VI, ISO 10993, EU 1935/2004 food-contact, RoHS and REACH statements, plus batch material certificates and dimensional reports.
Sampling quantities are available for evaluation. Production MOQ depends on the profile/tool; we confirm it with the quotation.
Stocked lines ship within a few working days. Custom extrusions and moulded parts are typically confirmed per order after drawing sign-off.
